Time Is Running Out
C.A.P Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So make it all count
That's what life's all about
So don't live in your doubt
Time's running out
So make it all count
That's what life's all about
Hey-ey-ey Hey-ey-ey
You'll be with you for life so give yourself a chance
Hey-ey-ey Hey-ey-ey
You'll be with you for life so come on take a stand
Things to do
Things I'll lose
Where to go?
What all to do?
Twenty years I've spent looking backwards
All that IS
Is happening now
Twenty years of asking why and how?
Time's running out
So make it all count
That's what life's all about
So don't live in your doubt
Time's running out
So make it all count
That's what life's all about
So don't live in your doubt
Hey-ey-ey Hey-ey-ey
You'll be with you for life so give yourself a chance
Hey-ey-ey Hey-ey-ey
You'll be with you for life so come on take a stand
Even if life is meaningless...
Asking what's all the point in this?
The fact is I'm alive
Ain't that weird?
Isn't that weird?
A bit strange...
Even if life is meaningless
There's something more that I confess
That I believe there is happiness
Isn't that weird?
A bit strange
Time's running out and
my time's running out and
your time's running out and
our time's running out
Time's running, running, running
Time's running, running, running
Time's running, running, running
Time Is Running Out!
Time's running out
So make it all count
That's what life's all about
So don't live in your doubt
Time's running out
So make it all count
That's what life's all about
So don't live in your doubt
Hey-ey-ey Hey-ey-ey
You'll be with you for life so give yourself a chance
Hey-ey-ey Hey-ey-ey
You'll be with you for life so come on take a stand
In C.A.P's song "Time Is Running Out," the lyrics convey a sense of urgency and the importance of living life to the fullest. The repetition of the phrase "Time's running out, so make it all count" emphasizes the limited time we have on earth and the need to seize every opportunity. It encourages listeners to move beyond their doubts and fears, taking a stand and giving themselves a chance to experience life fully.
The lyrics also touch on the theme of self-reflection and the realization that too much time can be spent dwelling on the past. The lines "Twenty years I've spent looking backwards, all that IS is happening now" suggest a shift in perspective, acknowledging the futility of constantly questioning and analyzing the past. Instead, it highlights the importance of focusing on the present moment and making the most of the time we have.
Furthermore, the song explores existential thoughts about the meaning of life. The lines "Even if life is meaningless, there's something more that I confess, that I believe there is happiness" reflect a desire to find purpose and joy despite the uncertainties and doubts that may arise. It is a reminder to embrace the strange and unexplainable aspects of life, searching for happiness even in the face of existential questions.
